Definitions

  • This disclosure relates generally to a stowable table assembly and particularly, although not exclusively, relates to a stowable table assembly for a motor vehicle.
  • the automotive designer is less restricted in the design of the passenger compartment.
  • the seating arrangement and the placement of vehicle furniture in future vehicles may be different from that of a conventional vehicle.
  • the seating arrangement in future vehicles may be reconfigurable depending on a passenger's requirements for a particular journey. It is desirable, therefore, to provide vehicle furniture that may be more conveniently stowed when not in use, and that can be positioned depending on the seating arrangement of the vehicle.
  • a stowable table assembly for a vehicle comprising:
  • the carrier may rotate during the translation (e.g. a majority of the translation) between the stowed and upright positions.
  • the translation and rotation may occur substantially concurrently when moving between the stowed and upright positions.
  • the table top may start to rotate towards or at the end of the translation when moving from the aligned position to the extended position. In reverse, the table top may first rotate before commencing translation when moving from the extended position to the aligned position.
  • the cavity (e.g. a structure within the cavity) may comprise at least one guide and the carrier may comprise at least one follower at the first end of the carrier.
  • the carrier follower may be guided by the cavity guide such that the first end of the carrier may rotate and translate relative to the guide.
  • the carrier may comprise at least one guide and the table top comprises at least one follower (e.g. at the first end of the table top) configured to be guided by the guide so as to guide movement of the table top relative to the carrier.
  • the carrier may comprise first and second side walls. Each of the first and second side walls may comprise a pair of guides to guide movement of the table top.
  • the or one of the guides may comprise a curved end configured to provide a substantially horizontal surface for the corresponding follower to rest on and support the table top when the stowable table assembly is in the deployed configuration.
  • the or one of the guides e.g. a second guide on each of the carrier side walls
  • the or one of the guides may comprise a curved portion configured to guide rotation of the table top relative to the carrier.
  • the or one of the guides may comprise end stops for limiting travel of the corresponding table top follower.
  • the table top may rotate through approximately 180 degrees between the stowed and deployed configurations.
  • the table top may rotate relative to the carrier about an axis that is parallel to an axis about which the carrier rotates relative to the cavity.
  • the table top may define a cantilever extending from the first end of the table top to a second (e.g. distal) end when the table top is in the extended position.
  • the table top may extend from a second end of the carrier when in the deployed configuration.
  • the stowable table assembly may further comprise at least one folding table flap that may be rotatably coupled to the table top.
  • a pair of such table flaps may be provided.
  • the pair of table flaps may be provided at opposite edges of the table top.
  • the table flap(s) may rotate relative to the table top about an axis, which is at an angle (e.g. perpendicular) to an axis about which the table top rotates relative to the carrier.
  • the stowable table assembly may further comprise a movable trap door configured to selectively cover an opening in the floor that leads to the cavity.
  • the carrier and table top may pass through the opening when moving between the stowed and deployed configurations.
  • the trap door may be flush with the floor in the stowed configuration.
  • the trap door may be flush with the floor in the deployed configuration.
  • An end of the trap door may be set back from an end of the cavity opening when the trap door covers the opening and the carrier is in the substantially upright position.
  • the carrier may extend through a gap between spaced apart ends of the trap door and opening.
  • the stowable table assembly may further comprise a trap door flap.
  • the trap door flap may be movable between a first position that may cover the gap when the carrier is in the stowed positon and a second position that may reveal the gap when the carrier is in the upstanding position.
  • the trap door flap may be rotatably coupled to the trap door at the end of the trap door.
  • a vehicle such as a motor vehicle, may comprise the aforementioned stowable table assembly.
  • the first end of the carrier may move closer to a side wall of the vehicle when moving from the stowed position to the upright position.
  • a second end of the carrier may follow an arc that may not intersect the side wall of the vehicle.
  • the present disclosure relates to a stowable table assembly 10 for a vehicle 20, such as a motor vehicle.
  • the vehicle 20 comprises a cabin 22 for occupants of the vehicle.
  • the cabin 22 is bounded by a floor 24a, side walls 24b and ceiling 24c.
  • a cavity 26 is provided beneath the floor 24a of the vehicle 20.
  • Components of the stowable table assembly 10 may be stowed within the cavity 26.
  • a moveable trap door 28 may selectively cover the cavity 26.
  • the trap door 28 may be flush with the surrounding floor 24a when the stowable table assembly 10 is in a stowed configuration as depicted in Figure 1a .
  • the trap door 28 may also be flush with the surrounding floor 24a when the stowable table assembly 10 is in a deployed configuration (as depicted in Figure 1g ).
  • the trap door 28 may rotate relative to the floor 24 by virtue of pivot point 29 between the trap door 28 and floor 24a.
  • the stowable table assembly 10 comprises an elongate carrier 30.
  • the carrier 30 is moveably coupled to the vehicle 20.
  • the carrier 30 is coupled to side walls of the cavity 26.
  • a first end 30a of the carrier 30 is configured to rotate and translate (e.g. slide) relative to the cavity 26.
  • the cavity 26 comprises at least one guide 32, which may be in the form of a elongate slot in the side wall of the cavity 26.
  • a corresponding slot may be provided in an opposite side wall of the cavity 26.
  • the carrier 30 may comprise at least one follower 34 provided at the first end 30a of the carrier. The follower 34 may travel in the cavity guide 32 so as to permit translation of the carrier 30 relative to the cavity 26.
  • the follower 34 (or an intermediate part) may rotate relative to the guide 32 so as to permit rotation of the carrier 30 relative to the cavity 26.
  • the follower 34 may be in the form of a round pin that is free to rotate within the guide slot 32.
  • a pair of followers 34 may be provided on opposing sides of the carrier 30 with each follower sliding in a corresponding guide 32.
  • the guide 32 and follower 34 permit the carrier 30 to move between a stowed position, in which the carrier is substantially horizontal and stowed in the cavity 26 (as depicted in Figure la), to a substantially upright position, in which the carrier 30 extends from the cavity 26 (as depicted in Figure 1c ).
  • Figure 1b depicts such an intermediate position between the stowed and upright positions of the carrier and it will be apparent that the carrier 30 may rotate during the translation of the carrier between the stowed and upright positions. In other words, the translation and rotation of the carrier may occur substantially concurrently when moving between the stowed and upright positions.
  • the stowable table assembly 10 may further comprise at least one pulley.
  • a pair of pulleys 40a, 40b may be provided.
  • a flexible elongate member 42, such as a cable, may extend from the pulley(s) to the carrier 30.
  • the pulley 40b may be positioned so that rotation of the pulley 40b causes the carrier 30 to move from the stowed position to the upright position.
  • the pulley 40a may be positioned so that rotation of the pulley 40a causes the carrier 30 to move from the upright position to the stowed position.
  • the flexible elongate member 42 may be coupled to the first end 30a of the carrier 30.
  • the flexible elongate member 42 may be coupled to the carrier at a point 44 that is spaced apart from the follower 34 and which is closest to the first end 30a.
  • a force exerted by the flexible elongate member 42 may thus cause the carrier 30 to rotate about the follower 34. In this way, rotation of the pulley(s) may cause translation and rotation of the carrier 30.
  • a motor may be connected to the pulley(s) so as to drive rotation of the pulley. It will be appreciated however, that other actuators may be provided.
  • a linear actuator may be coupled to the carrier 30 so as to cause the carrier 30 to translate and rotate.
  • the stowable table assembly 10 further comprises a table top 50.
  • the table top 50 is moveably coupled to the carrier 30.
  • a first end 50a of the table top is configured to translate (e.g. slide) and rotate relative to the carrier 30.
  • the table top 50 may move from an aligned position (as depicted in Figure Id), in which the table top 50 is aligned with and stowed within the carrier 30, and an extended position (as depicted in Figure 1g ), in which the table top 50 is at an angle relative to the carrier 30.
  • the table top 50 may retract into the carrier 30 and may reside within a space defined by the carrier 30.
  • the table top 50 may extend from a second end 30b of the carrier such that the table top 50 defines a cantilever extending from the second end 30b of the carrier to a second (e.g. distal) end 50b of the table top.
  • Longitudinal axes of the carrier 30 and table top 50 may be at approximately 90° to one another when the table top is in the extended position.
  • the table top 50 may rotate relative to the carrier 30 about an axis that is substantially parallel to an axis about which the carrier 30 rotates relative to the cavity 26. Furthermore, the table top 50 may rotate relative to the carrier 30 in the same direction as which the carrier 30 moves relative to the cavity 26 when the stowable table assembly 10 moves between the stowed and deployed configurations. Accordingly, the table top 50 may rotate through approximately 180° when moving between the stowed and deployed configurations.
  • the stowable table assembly 10 is in the deployed configuration when the carrier 30 is in the upright position and the table top 50 is in the extended position.
  • the stowable table assembly 10 is in the stowed configuration when the table top 50 is in the aligned position and the carrier 30 is in the stowed position.
  • the carrier 30 may comprise at least one guide and the table top 50 may comprise at least one corresponding follower.
  • the table top follower may be guided by the carrier guide so as to guide movement of the table top relative to the carrier.
  • the carrier 30 may comprise first and second side walls 36, one of which is depicted in Figure 2 .
  • the side walls 36 may extend in the longitudinal direction of the carrier 30 and the side walls may be laterally spaced apart so as to define a space in which the table top 50 may reside when in the aligned position.
  • Each of the first and second side walls 36 may comprise a pair of guides 38a, 38b, which may be in the form of slots, to guide movement of the table top 50.
  • Each side of the table top 50 comprises corresponding followers 52a, 52b, which are provided at the first end 50a of the table top, and which are configured to slide in the respective guides 38a, 38b.
  • Each of the guides 38a, 38b may comprise end stops for limiting the travel of the corresponding table top followers 52a, 52b.
  • the guides 38a, 38b may be elongate and may extend side by side along a substantial portion of the length of the carrier side wall 36.
  • Each of the guides 38a, 38b may comprise substantially straight portions 38a', 38b' which are substantially parallel to one another and which permit the table top 50 to translate relative to the carrier 30 as the respective followers 52a, 52b slide along the straight portions.
  • the second guide 38b may comprise a curved portion 38b" at or near the second end 30b of the carrier. The curved portion 38b" of the guide 38b may cause the table top 50 to rotate as the follower 52b travels in the curved portion 38b".
  • the first guide 38a may comprise a hooked end 38a", which may be curved.
  • the hooked end 38a" may provide a substantially horizontal surface for the corresponding follower 52a to rest on and support the table top 50.
  • the horizontal surface at the hooked end 38a" may provide an upwards force to the follower 52a.
  • an end of the second guide 38b at the second end 30b of the carrier may provide a downwards force to the follower 52b.
  • Figure 2a depicts the table top in the aligned position with the table top 50 mid-way through its translation in the straight portions 38a', 38b' of the guides 38a, 38b.
  • Figure 2b depicts the table top portion mid-way through the rotation relative to the carrier 30 during which the follower 52b travels in the curved portion 38b" of the guide 38b.
  • Figure 2c depicts the table top 50 in the extended position, in which the end stops of the guides 38a, 38b support the respective followers 52a, 52b so as to maintain the extended position of the table top. Owing to the shape of the guides 38a, 38b, it will be appreciated that the table top 50 first translates (e.g. moves in the linear direction) and then rotates when moving from the aligned position to the extended position.
  • an actuator may be provided to move the table top 50 between the aligned and extended positions.
  • a linear actuator or rotary actuator such as a motor, may be provided to urge movement between the two components.
  • the table top 50 may be manually moved relative to the carrier 30 by an occupant of the vehicle 20.
  • an end 28a of the trap door 28 may be set back from an end 26a of the cavity 26.
  • a gap may therefore exist between the trap door 28 and the end 26a of the cavity.
  • the carrier 30 may pass through the gap between the ends of the trap door 28 and cavity 26.
  • the width of the gap may correspond to the width of the carrier 30.
  • the end 28a of the trap door 28 and end 26a of the cavity 26 may thus assist in holding the carrier 30 in place when in the upright position.
  • the stowable table assembly 10 may further comprise a trap door flap 60.
  • the trap door flap 60 may be moveably coupled to the trap door 28, for example the trap door flap 60 may be pivotably connected to the trap door 28 at the end 28a of the trap door.
  • the trap door flap may cover the gap between the end 28a of the trap door and the end 26a of the cavity when the carrier 30 is in the stowed position.
  • the trap door flap 60 may move so as to reveal the gap when the carrier 30 is in the upstanding position.
  • the trap door flap 60 may be substantially flush with the surrounding trap door 28 and floor 24a when covering the gap.
  • the stowable table assembly 10 may further comprise at least one folding table flap that may be rotatably coupled to the table top 50.
  • the stowable table assembly may comprise a first table flap 72 and a second table flap 74.
  • the first table flap 72 may be rotatably coupled to the table top 50 along a lengthwise edge of the table top 50.
  • the second table flap 74 may be rotatably coupled to the opposite lengthwise edge of the table top 50.
  • the first and second table flaps 72, 74 may rotate about axes that are spaced apart from one another.
  • the first and second table flaps 72, 74 may also rotate about axes that are substantially perpendicular to the axis about which the table top 50 rotates relative to the carrier 30.
  • Figure 4 depicts how the table flaps 72, 74 may be unfolded relative to the table top 50.
  • the first and second table flaps 72, 74 may be folded in on each other.
  • the first table flap 72 may then be unfolded to reveal the second table flap 74 which may then also be unfolded.
  • both table flaps have been unfolded (as depicted in Figure 4d ) a larger table surface is presented to the occupants of the vehicle.
  • the table flaps 72, 74 may be folded in the reverse order so as to return the table flaps to their folded positions.
  • the table top 50 may be retracted into the aligned position relative to the carrier 30.
  • Figures 1a-1g depict the sequence of events as the stowable table assembly 10 is moved from the stowed configuration to the deployed configuration.
  • the carrier 30 is moved away from the stowed position, e.g. by virtue of movement of pulleys 40a, 40b.
  • the second end 30b of the carrier 30 moves upwards and the first end 30a of the carrier moves laterally across, e.g. towards the side wall 24b of the vehicle.
  • the trap door 28 may be displaced as the carrier 30 moves from the stowed position to the upright position. However, once the carrier 30 is in the upright position the trap door 28 may return to its original position, although the trap door flap 60 may be displaced so as to allow the carrier 30 to protrude through the cavity opening.
  • the table top 50 may then be retracted from the carrier 30.
  • the table top 50 may initially move linearly and may then rotate into a horizontal position, e.g. as depicted in Figure 1g and Figure 3 .
  • the table flaps 72, 74 (if provided) may then be unfolded to increase the surface area of the resulting table. This procedure may then be reversed in order to return the stowable table assembly into the stowed configuration.
  • the present disclosure advantageously provides a stowable table assembly that can be deployed from the floor of a vehicle.
  • the movement of the carrier and table top minimises the incursion into the cabin space and also avoids any unwanted interactions with the side wall 24b or ceiling 24c of the vehicle.
